Original text and translations

Original text and translations may be found at Psalm 32.

N.B. This setting's text bears only a passing resemblance to that psalm, the source text having been paraphrased and cast in sonnet form by Francesco Bembo (1544-1699): there is also a contemporary translation of that sonnet in English, even more tenuously linked to a verbatim translation of the source text. Latin text (or link to a text page) needs to be added.   Question.gif
